Multiple terror attacks struck Mumbai, India’s financial capital on the night of 26 November 2008. A shocked nation was paralysed by a series of simultaneous assaults in South Mumbai, traditional hub of the metropolis at a time when revelers were out on the streets and the common man preparing to go to bed. Many realized that got up in the wee hours of 27 November 2008 to learn that schools and offices were closed for the day. These attacks in the heart of Mumbai in the proximity of the Gateway of India were seen by the nation as an assault on Indian sovereignty much in the same vein of the parliamentary strike in December 2001.
